What does the day-to-day work of a specialist in surgical technology HF look like?
Specialists in surgical technology work in the operating departments of public or private hospitals, in surgical outpatient clinics, in doctors' surgeries, in central sterilization and at medical technology companies.
You are responsible for the planning, organization and logistics of the operating theatre - both for planned and emergency operations. They prepare the operating room, i.e. the necessary instruments, materials, apparatus and equipment, coordinate the teams from different specialist disciplines (e.g. anesthesia, nursing or medical technology) and take care of patient care. They are also responsible for safety and hygiene measures and monitor compliance with them. During the operation, they provide the surgeon with instruments so that he/she can keep a constant eye on the surgical field. Specialists in surgical technology ensure that everything runs smoothly in the operating theater and that everyone involved works together in a coordinated manner. They therefore make a significant contribution to a successful operation and thus to the patient's recovery.
The work of surgical technology specialists (formerly TOA) covers three phases: before, during and after the operation.
- Before the operationspecialists clean their hands thoroughly and put on sterile clothing. They then prepare the equipment, instruments and materials required for the procedure, such as compresses and drapes. They check that all equipment and instruments as well as the infrastructure (e.g. lighting) are working properly. They also look after patients who are not yet anaesthetized, greet and inform them and enquire about their well-being and needs. Finally, they assist the surgeons in putting on sterile clothing and gloves.
- During the surgeryassist the surgeon, i.e. they hand him the instruments and other required materials or remove them on order. In doing so, they ensure that the instruments are working properly. If this is not the case, they replace them without interfering with the operation.
- After the operationsurgical technicians ensure that the patient is transported safely from the operating table back to their bed. They are also jointly responsible for preparing the operating room for the next operation. To do this, they check the instruments for any damage, dispose of them or pass them on for cleaning and sterilization and store them properly. They also check the stocks of medicines and materials and reorder them if there are insufficient quantities.
Finally, surgical technology specialists supervise apprentices and accompany them during their training.

Question 2:
Do you belong to the target group for this surgical technology training and do you have the necessary personal qualities?
Great! Find out in the next step whether you meet the admission requirements to start training as a specialist in surgical technology HF.
- If you have the feeling that you do not belong to the target group for training to become a qualified specialist in surgical technology HF, the question arises as to which points make you skeptical. Do you have respect for working in an interdisciplinary team? Or is it perhaps the hierarchy that often prevails? Are you not sure whether an operating theater is really the right place for you to work? Here are a few suggestions:
- Working in an interdisciplinary team, including hierarchical levels, can be quite challenging. Here, too, you may be working with people who are not on the same "wavelength" as you - but this is the case in almost every team. After all, working with people from different specialist disciplines can be very enriching, and it is important to focus on these positive aspects.
- You will find out fairly quickly whether the operating theater is really the right place for you. During your surgical technology training, you will take an early step into practice and gain a good impression. You should also talk to your colleagues. They will certainly have various tips on how you can optimize your clothing, for example, if it is too cold for you.

Duration of study, number of learning hours, forms of learning, teaching times, teaching format and learning effort
- Duration of studyThe surgical technology training/continuing education at a higher technical college to become a certified specialist in surgical technology HF (formerly TOA) takes three years and is usually offered as a full-time course.
Note: The training period is shorter for holders of a HF diploma as a HF nursing specialist. This is because they can have 1800 learning hours credited. - Number of learning hoursThe course comprises 5400 learning hours. Of these, 2200 learning hours are used for the learning area "School" and 3100 learning hours for the learning area "Practice".
- Forms of learningThe learning hours are divided into the following academic and practical educational components:
- School as a place of learningThe relevant theoretical knowledge (theories, concepts and models) is taught here and tested by means of learning assessments.
- Practice as a place of learning: Here, the bridge from theory to practice is built by means of internships. This gives students the opportunity to apply and deepen their knowledge and skills in practice. To this end, students complete internships in three different specialist areas: 1) visceral surgery, vascular surgery, gynecology and urology, 2) traumatology, orthopedics and 3) special surgery.
- Training and transfer (TT)In this educational component, students are given the opportunity to train in specifically designed learning environments and/or practice facilities.
- Lesson timesAs this surgical technology HF course is a full-time course, lessons generally take place every day. When exactly the individual theoretical and practical sequences are held at school and in the company depends on the school and the hospital, among other things. These can create their own timetables.
- Teaching formatThe school lessons usually take place in face-to-face classes.
- Learning effort: You should allow sufficient time for preparation and follow-up of the lessons as well as for self-study - how much depends on your previous knowledge, working style, learning speed and chosen training model.
Note: Some schools offer so-called "taster placements". This gives you the opportunity to gain an insight into lessons and the learning atmosphere. Important aspects on the way to successful graduation. Take the opportunity and contact the school of your choice directly.
Question 6:
Can you find the time for lessons and self-study?
Great!
Tip for self-study: Set yourself realistic daily or weekly targets and think about a small reward when you have achieved them. A good study strategy not only motivates you, but also protects you from chaotic, stressful study days and nights shortly before the exam.
Perhaps you could get together with other course participants from the class to form a learning group? The exchange with like-minded people and the commitment to meet at a fixed time to learn together can be very motivating.
If you do not have that much time to devote to training to become a qualified specialist in surgical technology HF, contact the providers and clarify whether you can possibly complete the training spread over more than six semesters.
If you still don't have enough time, check whether you can create space for yourself elsewhere. Perhaps someone close to you can take on certain tasks for you for the duration of your training?
Degree, diploma and title
During your training/further training to become a specialist in surgical technology HF, it is common for you to complete various qualifications. The higher technical colleges regulate what these so-called doctoral steps look like independently in the so-called doctoral regulations. For example, they can take the form of examinations (semester or intermediate examinations) or independent work (semester or project work and presentations). The grades for these qualification achievements are then incorporated directly into the final grades.
If you have fulfilled all the admission requirements specified in the doctoral regulations of the respective HF for the HF surgical technology course, you will be admitted to the final qualification procedure. This consists of three parts:
- Onepractice-oriented diploma thesisor a practice-oriented project work: In this part of the examination, students demonstrate that they are able to deal in depth with the field of work and the skills required there. The thesis is usually written in the final year of study.
- OneInternship qualification: In the last two months of the final internship, a final assessment is carried out by the internship company.
- OneExamination interviewIn this part of the examination, students' theoretical and case-related knowledge and reasoning skills are tested. The examination interview lasts 30 minutes and takes place in cooperation between the school and the internship company.
All parts of the examination must be passed in order to be awarded the federal HF diploma.
The details of the implementation of the final qualification procedure are regulated by the respective HF in its doctoral degree regulations.
Diploma and title
Graduates of surgical technology training at a university of applied sciences receive an HF diploma and are entitled to use the federally recognized and protected professional title "dipl. Fachfrau Operationstechnik HF / dipl. Fachmann Operationstechnik HF".
